Chunky!



1366x768, 2GB good. Matte-screen would have been even better. And so would a 128GB SSD option in place of the 500GB, rather than the existing options: Why even bother with 1024x600 and 1GB. It is 2012 for heavens sake!

And when that user upgrades it to 4GB they are going to have to reformat just to make use of it.:shadedshu

There is no reason at this point to not put a 64-bit OS on it from the beginning. Basic use or not.

If you are smart to upgrade your ram to 4Gb you must be capable of reformatting your pc. <-- will not be surprised if they give this excuse

Sure, but it is still a hassle. Upgrading to 4GB of RAM is a 30 second process, reformatting can take hours.:ohwell:

Or perhaps they think you are going to install a SSD anyway. Whatever the reason, they are certainly dumb/douchey/whatever enough not to install the 64bit to begin with. Let's hope "feedback" from us reach their medically deaf ears.
